Iron Man 2


Iron Man 2 has been a highly anticipated movie for many American citizens. This movie is a sequel to Iron Man, and was released on May 7, 2010. This movie is based on the Marvel Comics Iron Man character and is the second movie in a planned trilogy. The movie is about Jason Stark, who recently announced to the public that he was Iron Man and is not allowing the government to take his technology that he spent a lot of time on. Stark’s enemy, Ivan Vanko, has made a similar invention to Iron Man and creates problems for Stark. Vanko is seeking revenge for his family’s not-so-good past, including the death of his father who used to work for Stark, and blames it on Stark and his works. This movie continues with fighting scenes, as most American superhero movies do. Iron Man 2 stars Robert Downey Jr, Gwyneth Paltrow, Scarlett Johansson, Samuel L. Jackson, and Sam Rockwell. E!News gives this movie an A-, so I would suggest this movie for people interested in action and superheroes.

  1. I am not really interested in movies like this, but was dragged to see it with some friends last Friday night. It wasn't too bad. If you like action you have to see it! I was bored at time, but entertained most of the film. It was pretty interesting, but you should really see Ironman before you see the second one otherwise I would not understood the whole story line.

  2. Yeah, like Brittany said: if you havent seen the first movie dont see this one! You kinda miss bits and pieces of the storyline. You won't understand why and how Tony Stark created the ironman, you won't understand who his father really was, etc. Anyways, if you do happen to see it and you haven't seen the first one, you'll still enjoy it. Something that I really like about this movie is that they are throwing the Avengers into the mix. At the end of the second Hulk, which was actually a good movie- unlike the first one- they hint towards the avengers after the credits. Throughout all of the Marvel movies, fans of the comics will notice several hints at the comics and at other super heroes, such as Captain America and Thor. Eventually these individual movies will culminate in the Avengers movie, which will be amazing. I can't wait!

  3. I really liked this movie! I saw it with a friend of mine and we both really enjoyed it. I definitely think that if you did not see the first movie, the second would be pretty confusing. I still liked the first one more. I think that Roberty Downey Jr. is a great actor!
